A triangle was dilated by a scale factor of 6. If sin aº

Mathematics
1 answer:
Pavlova-9 [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

24 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle was dilated by a scale factor of 6. If sin a° = four fifths and segment DE measures 30 units, how long is segment EF?

triangle DEF in which angle F is a right angle, angle D measures a degrees, and angle E measures b degrees

15.5 units

24 units

30 units

37.5 units

From the description:

angle D measures a degrees

opposite to angle D is side EF

side DE (which measures 30 units) is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

We also know that

\sin (a) = \frac{4}{5}

\sin (a) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

From definition:

\sin (a) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

Replacing:

\frac{4}{5} =\frac{ EF}{DE} \\\\EF = \frac{4}{5} *DE\\\\EF = \frac{4}{5} *30 \\\\= 24 units

To solve this problem, we are going to set up an equation. However, first we need to convert the percentages to decimals by dividing by 100.

15% = 0.15 , 7.5% = 0.075

Now, we should substitute in our given information into our equation and let our unknown value be equal to the variable x.

0.15(500) = 0.075x

Then, we should simplify our equation by multiplying together the two factors on the left side of the equation.

75 = 0.075x

Finally, we should divide both sides of the equation by 0.075 to get the variable x alone.

x = 1000

Therefore, your answer is 1000.

Hope this helps!

A spinner travels around a circle. The radius is 3 inches. Mike spins the spinner and it travels completely around the circle 5
nignag [31]

Answer:

The spinner travelled 94.2 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this question we first need to calculate the length of the circle, that is given by the following formula:

length = 2*pi*r

length = 2*3.14*3 = 18.84 inches

Since the spinner revolved around the circle 5 times, the distance travelled by the tip is the length of the circle multiplied by 5, as shown below:

distance = length*5

distance = 18.84*5 = 94.2 inches

The spinner travelled 94.2 inches.
